Ingredients
1 drained can of solid white Tuna, 170g(drained 120g, packed in water)1 hardboiled egg (I used an Omega 3 egg)1 tbsp mayo1 tbsp miracle whip light1 oz. fresh lemon juice1 stalk celery2 tbsp red onion3 cornichons, or pickle relishslices of tomato1 oz old cheddar, shredded or slice (or your preference...swiss cheese has less fat, but this is what I had) 2 slices bavarian multigrain bread, or preferred
Directions
Drain tuna, add egg and chop together. Dice cornichons, onion and celery and add to tuna, along with mayo.
(I used a combo of mayo and M.W. light, though I don't usually light lite or fat free anything...)
Fresh squeeze of lemon juice brightens up the flavour. Salt and pepper to taste.
I toasted the bread while heating up the tuna in the microwave. I put half the mixture on each slice, and sprinkled on paprika and a leeeetle cayenne. Sliced tomato on top, and then half of the cheese. I use old cheddar so the taste is bold though the amount is small!
I broiled them for just a couple of minutes.
One was more than enough, and I paired it with a baked sweet potato that I could not finish.
